Installation

To set up Bedrock Voice Chat on your server, you will need the behavior pack addon alongside the Bedrock Dedicated Server (BDS) and the client application.

1. Download the latest behavior pack provided as a zip or mcpack file.
2. Upload this pack to the behavior_packs folder at the root of your BDS server directory without extracting it.

Avoid placing the pack inside your world folders to prevent accidental exposure of server endpoints and API keys.

3. If your behavior pack is not preconfigured with your access token and server address, add the following configuration to config/default/variables.json on your server:

{ "bvc_access_token": "<YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN>", "bvc_server": "", "bvc_debug": false
}

4. Modify config/default/permissions.json to include the required Minecraft server modules:

{ "allowed_modules": [ "@minecraft/server-gametest", "@minecraft/server", "@minecraft/server-ui", "@minecraft/server-admin", "@minecraft/server-editor", "@minecraft/server-net" ]
}

5. Ensure that Beta APIs are enabled for your world in the server settings.
6. Add the behavior pack to your world’s behavior packs list. Use the UUID: 6fb24263-357a-407c-aebe-681f50b2de50 and verify you have the latest version.
7. Start your Bedrock Dedicated Server to apply the changes.

Requirements / Compatibility

• Minecraft Bedrock Dedicated Server
• Bedrock Voice Chat client app for Windows 10/11, iOS, or Android
• Behavior pack installed on the server for positional audio and proximity chat functionality
